I made it with Nestle's milk chocolate morsels. I'm not big on for the other chocolate either. It worked fine. I filled the cups all the way to the top so it was flush with the top of the pan so when I took them out, the sat flat on the plate. I bet it would be good with dark chocolate too.

There is a "silicone floral booklet" listed in "files" on 12-9. There are a lot of great ideas.
 
This is the one item that I keep wondering if I should have... does that make sense? Will I really use it.. will it just take up space... I am SURE I would sell more of them if I had it but realistically... how many are selling lots of these? Is it a hot item for some of you? Do you feel it's an item that has to be seen and demo'ed to have someone buy it? Can you tell I've waffled about this one???? :) Any input on this item is sincerely apprecitated! Especially as I'm salivating over the PB Cups! :)
 
Great idea for Valentine's Chocolate Show. :)
 
Get it!!

I say get it! Whenever I bring this to a show I sell AT LEAST 2 of them! I did a Craft Fair around Christmas and sold 5. They are one of my top sellers. I tell people everything they can use them for:
Cupcakes, Brownies, Ice, Jello, Pancakes, PB Cups, Pound Cakes.....
Guests LOVE them!:D
 
Dont forget Ice Cream - soften your flavor, then refreeze in the pan, makes lovely additions to wedding cakes
 
Oh! Good idea!! I will add that to the "list"! :D
 
I have it and haven't even used it yet. I wanted it so bad, had all these great ideas to try and haven't even had the time to try them. I think I am going to make the peanut butter cups before hand stick them in the freezer and take some to each show so guests can see them.
 
Do I remember someone saying they made pretty butter pats with it as well?

If you use semi-sweet chips, add a little bit (1-2 teaspoons) of regular shortening (Crisco). Semi-sweet chips are a little firmer than "eating" chocolate, and that will soften them up and make them a little shinier.
 
Thanks Ann! Would I do the same for Milk Chocolate Morsels?
 
Yes!

Yes!! Another good idea!!

You probably could, but I've found that the milk chocolate morsels are already a little softer than the semisweet.

Or you could just buy a large bar of the "good stuff" like Ghirardelli or Hershey Extra Dark and use that. mmmm......

Yes! I made those for Thanksgiving and they were beautiful!
 
How much is 1 lb of chocolate chips? 2 cups?
 
no... 2 cups is 12 oz ... and I'm too tired to continue the math ... sorry! :)
 
Gillian: I think a pound is 16 ounces, but I have medicine head, so I could be wrong...

ok. I am making the PC cups right now. Does anyone else have any trouble melting chocolate in the microwave??? Everytime I try to melt it in the microwave it burns or gets ruined.
